No, you don't get the difficulty in bringing
freedom to humanity.

My proposal was just an example. I have no
particular desire to have that exact
standard adopted. I do have a particular
desire to make sure it isn't Posix unless
they remove fork() from it, just for starters.

Can you be specific please? What is the
existing standard/practice that you see
for small computer systems, and would you
have recommended that standard/practice
be used on the Amiga so that Commodore
didn't go bankrupt?

Commodore instead created another API.
